QRC - Working with Device Data Settings

OVERVIEW

Device Data Settings, or DDS, indicate the frequency that the system records and transmits the location of an asset.

The default for the in-vehicle tracking units is to record once every 2 minutes and transmit the data back to the Fleet Complete system every 6 minutes. For the AT-1000 Asset Tracker, the default setting takes a position once every 24 hours when stationary and not attached to a battery or power source and every 4 hours when connected to a power source and/or in motion.
